Sand Mastic in Anmore
We cover Anmore for traditional burnt sand mastic around sash and case windows and doors in stone and brick. Old sealant removed completely, joints prepared properly and every job guaranteed for a year.
- Tired mastic found when preparing windows for paint
- Draughty sash windows at the surround
- A silicone bead on a sash window that spoils the look
How we handle sand mastic in Anmore
We renew sand mastic around sash windows and doors set in stone or brick. Out comes the old, loose mastic, and new mastic is applied and shaped by hand. We work on timber door frames, tenement windows and sash and case windows, and the jobs we see most are window mastic to renew ahead of painting and draughty sash windows at the surround.
In a village or hamlet like Anmore, older cottages and farmhouses often have timber windows set in stone or brick. Not every older frame suits a modern silicone bead, and sometimes a traditional sand mastic is the better choice.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

Anmore homes and the weather
The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.
Letting a property close to Bedhampton station? Then older sash windows in a rental need their mastic kept sound to keep the weather out. If you look after a building such as Denmead Infant School, its window and door frames need their mastic kept sound, just like a home’s.

Can I do it myself?
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Leave it or put it right?
Draughts round a sash window aren’t always the sashes. Open mastic joints round the box can let air in, and renewing the mastic closes them. Around Anmore, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Instead of a standard rate, we price the job in front of us: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You will know the price before we begin.

Looking after it afterwards
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Avoid heavy scraping on the mastic joint
- Make sure water runs off the sill
- Check the mastic when you check the paintwork
- Plan mastic work ahead of painting
Don’t run silicone over the new mastic. If anything cracks, get it looked at rather than patching it.
An open joint round the box lets weather through. The longer it’s left, the more the joint opens.
Different surfaces, different methods
Brick reveals
Gaps between frame and brick let in rain and draughts. New mastic seals the gap.
Sash and case windows
The box of a sash and case window sits in the stone or brick opening. Sand mastic seals the joint round it.
